On the eighth episode of The Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max venture through the bland acting choices, colorful scenic design, and what it means to care about one's family as they discuss Wes Anderson's funny family drama The Royal Tenenbaums. Discussing the symmetry of Anderson's shots and how the audience may find themselves self-aware, rather than projecting values onto emotional characters. There are plenty of laughs to be had even as they examine a destroyed family unit with one father's gutsy and morally flawed decision to try and save his relationship with each of them.
